Pistol lube for low temps
- Thread starter hso
- Start date
A thin film of Super Lube on the Bbl exterior,frame rails & slide rails has served me well for 35+ years in AK on my semi auto pistols(1911's,S&W 645,745,4506,1006,1076 & ,SigSauer Classic P Series 220's,226's,227's,228's,229's).
At -20F & below,carry pistol under clothing close to body heat.
( I don't use/own TupperWare pistols...aka Glucks,S&W MP's)

I use Hornady One Shot cleaner/lube while hunting with my Browning BAR in -20. Goes on easy and flashes away, leaving a fine protective film. Graphite makes a mess that needs cleaning on its own especially if it gets any moisture mixed in. That was my experience with it.
Why? She arrives at border, declares her firearm. She pays a registration fee ($25Cdn?) has a gun lock with gun locked in a case and she is good to go. Entering Canada at an Alberta or BC crossing would be wise. Canada/US have a treaty allowing road access to Alaska by Americans. The route must be direct and does not allow for vacationing . The border was not closed to this travel during the pandemic either.
To the OP, polymer guns require little to no lubrication. In the winter I would clean the gun and not apply any lube at all IF I though the gun would be exposed to real cold conditions for any length of time.

If she wants to see a gun operate in slow motion use FrogLube. Funniest thing you ever saw. My 45 looked like it was operating at 1/5th speed. Was OK in the summer but a joke in the winter (on an indoor range,no less.).
She owns a polymer CZP10. The polymer guns require very little to no lube to function at any temperature.
